Bump on Nose, What Should I Do?
Hello, I've been considering a nose job for 2 years.(I'm 15 years old) I have this bump on my nose that makes my nose look much bigger than it actually is. Is it possible to have the bump removed,without changing the rest of the nose? I really like the way the tip of my nose looks, so I dont want to change that. My main concern is that my nose doesn't fit my face, it looks good from the front, but I just don't like the way it looks from the side. Hope to hear from you soon Kimia

You will want to find a board certified surgeon who is very comfortable with closed rhinoplasty techniques.
